April Book Club

For April, the Book Club is reading American Dirt by Jeanine Cummins. The group will meet in the library on Monday, April 29 from 11 to noon.

American Dirt is a 2020 novel by American author Jeanine Cummins, published by Flatiron Books. The book is about a Mexican bookseller who is forced to flee as an illegal immigrant to the United States, along with her son, after her journalist husband exposes a local drug kingpin. American Dirt was a New York Times best seller, selling over 3 million copies worldwide in 37 languages. However, the book also gained significant criticism, especially from Mexican-American authors, for its alleged cultural exploitation. (Wikipedia)
